I am having a clear out and I have come across a new McPherson type
suspension leg for a Ford. Trouble is, that I don't know what it fits, I
could hazard a guess at Capri, but does anyone know what it really fits: It
is a Fitchel and Sachs leg marked with a big L and the numbers:
TF32x152A
04 1500 100 227
H75AB 3K 034 AA

Any ideas please?

ISTR 75 AB is Mk2 Capri. I'll check later.

(75 being year of design, AB I think being the code for Capri)

I'm pretty sure that EB is the code for Capri. I think AB is Escort.

The "H" prefix denotes a Rallye Sport specific part. The "L", if it's
the same as the Billies on my Capri, simply denotes left as opposed to
right, which saves having to work out which side of the car it should be
attached to from the part number.

I'm also pretty sure that all Capri RS struts were made by Bilstein, and
the part number for Escort Gp1 RS four spoke alloys also begins with
H75AB.
